Work has become an obsession for Detective Tom Adkins since the disappearance of his ten-year-old son, Tommy Jr. When an early morning phone call leads him to the mangled remains of a young boy who was brutally murdered 50 years ago, Adkins takes on the case in hopes of finding absolution. His investigation leads him to a man who lived in 1958 named Matthew Wakefield and the man's innocent son, John. The striking similarities in the cases pushes Adkins' obsession over the top. Barely holding onto his sanity and bound by redemption, Adkins tries to unravel the unspeakable truth behind what happened to his son.

Crazy (US)
Screen Media | 2008 | 106 mins | Rated R |




Inspired by the life of Hank Garland, a legendary musician who joined the Grand Ol' Opry at 15 and rose to fame in the early 1950s as Nashville's premiere session guitarist. Garland's immense, innovative talents grace the timeless recordings of such music icons as Elvis Presley, The Everly Brothers, Roy Orbison and Patsy Cline. In 1961, he startled the music world by jumping genres from country and pop to jazz with the release of "Jazz Winds From A New Direction," a tour de force that to this day is considered an all-time classic jazz album. Tragically, a near-fatal car crash cut Garland's extraordinary career short.
